I Think I Can

I'm slowly getting the ol' paper and glue fixation back. Today I merged work and play by creating a page about my state of mind as I enter my 11th year of teaching. I can't believe I've been teaching for over a decade. Crazy. I still feel like a newbie. Every year, I hit a "restart" button. This year's fresh start calls for some major changes in my habits and attitudes, and I'm definitely up for the challenge. When I started teaching, I promised myself that I would not become That Teacher, the one who had been teaching the same way for so long that she became stagnant and ineffective. If I want to keep teaching, then I need to keep learning.

I'm so glad I made this page today. It's a little bit of personal validation that I'm on the right track.

Use Your Words

"Word-work is sublime...because it is generative; it makes meaning that secures our difference, our human difference -- the way in which we are like no other life.

We die. That may be the meaning of life. But we do language. That may be the measure of our lives. "

Toni Morrison
